Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Chen Wen’s side was harmonious.

But right in the core area of the Qiangtang Plateau, on a piece of land not too far from Chen Wen.

A planned attack suddenly happened!

The attack was targeting a young man pushing a bicycle, the very same Qin Yi who had spent some time with Chen Wen.

Qin Yi looked stunned as he saw two people jump out of an off-road vehicle, then they raised their weapons menacingly, cursing something.

Realizing the danger, Qin Yi made a swift decision. He threw his bicycle fiercely, aiming at the man closest to him.

Seeing the bicycle coming, the man instinctively reached out to block it.

Crack! Bang!

Along with the collision of muscle and bike frame, a series of muffled sounds mixed with groaning could be heard.

Qin Yi knew his bicycle had played a big role.

He gained an excellent opportunity to escape!

But before Qin Yi could start running, a rushing sound suddenly came from behind.

He instinctively turned to look, and a dark object struck his forehead under his gaze.

Qin Yi’s vision went black, and his head went blank, his ears filled with a ringing sound.

He opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something, but instead, he smelled a metallic scent.

Thud!

Qin Yi fell straight to the ground.

”Ptooey!”

The man hit by the bicycle spat out blood-tinged saliva.

His eyes flashed with cruelty: ”Damn it, this kid almost escaped!”

”He won’t escape.”

The other man picked up a backpack from the ground, which he had brought along, filled with heavy items, including a satellite phone.

He glanced at the contents inside the backpack, then said: ”The boss instructed, apart from us three, there are people from the mine looking for this kid too, heard it’s people from Old Dog’s side.”

”Heh, Old Dog? That guy’s always timid, how does he dare catch someone now?”

The man hit by the bicycle said, holding a rope.

He walked over to Qin Yi and tied him up swiftly and securely.

As the other man held Qin Yi’s bicycle, he said: ”I heard Zhao mention, this kid seems to know some things about Old Dog. Last year, when Old Dog was in town, he noticed this kid, then when Old Dog was doing business, he found this kid nearby again, Old Dog felt something was off, so planned to catch this kid and question him, but later Old Dog discovered this kid might have evidence of his poaching...”

The two of them loaded Qin Yi and his bicycle into the trunk of their SUV.

Just as they were about to leave, the satellite phone rang.

The man holding the satellite phone smirked: ”Heh, just as the boss expected, it’s Old Dog.”

The other man rubbed the bruise on his face, chuckling: ”Let’s proceed with the plan!”

...

Chen Wen’s side.

With matters settled, things completely returned to tranquility on his side.

Walking down the road, Chen Wen felt everything around him was so wonderful.

”By the way, any plans for today?”

The Golden Eagle landed on Chen Wen’s shoulder, clutching the yak skin padded on Chen Wen’s shoulder and asked.

Chen Wen yawned leisurely and said: ”Plans? Well, let’s just continue leisurely towards the core area of the Qiangtang Plateau, what other plans could there be?”

Seeing Chen Wen apparently enter a slacking-off mode again, the Golden Eagle sighed in resignation, patting Chen Wen’s head with its wing: ”Well, looking at you, hoping for you to find something interesting seems pointless.”

After speaking, the Golden Eagle flapped its wings and suddenly soared into the high sky.

Chen Wen watched the Golden Eagle’s distant figure, couldn’t help but squint.

”Slacking off is great, letting the horses run free, leisurely following the herd into the depths of Qiangtang is just perfect.”

Chen Wen shook his head.

Food and everything are plentiful, now is the travel time!

...

With this in mind, Chen Wen rode Li Ma and continued heading into the depths of Qiangtang.

As the River Curve Horse herd grazed, Chen Wen would find a sunny spot nearby, rub some bone marrow oil on his face, and lay on the ground to sunbathe.

When sufficiently sunbathed, the horses had almost finished feeding too.

At this point, Chen Wen would ride the horse and continue onward.

At mealtime, Chen Wen would take out a few pieces of yak jerky, pair them with seasonings and water, and eat slowly while riding the horse.

When it was time to camp at night, he’d follow the horse herd to find a wind-shielded area, lie down among the herd, and spend the night.

Though conditions were a bit tough, life was pretty good.

Moreover, if he spotted any unfamiliar flora or fauna along the way, Chen Wen would go over to check them out.

However, he didn’t gain many entries.

On this journey, most animals Chen Wen encountered couldn’t be hunted.

For instance, the Tibetan fox, although a level two protected animal, due to its status as one of the few carnivores on the Qiangtang Plateau, hunting them is prohibited.

It’s only allowed to attack a Tibetan fox when it threatens a contestant’s safety.

And the Black-necked Crane.

A national level-one protected species, contestants are strictly prohibited from touching or disturbing them up close.

Chen Wen had seen the Black-necked Crane from afar once, a total of six, they were foraging on the shore of a lake.

At that time, Chen Wen really wanted to go and see.

But recalling Qu Yong’s stern look when explaining the rules, Chen Wen ultimately gave up the thought of approaching the Black-necked Cranes.

Walking lazily like this, around the third day.

Chen Wen’s lazy state came to an end.

...

”Chen Wen, Chen Wen! A car was spotted ahead!”

Under the clear sky, the Golden Eagle flapped its wings, breaking through the strong wind, delivering the message to Chen Wen at high speed.

A car?

Chen Wen was momentarily stunned, just about to inquire further.

But the Golden Eagle continued: ”However, this car looks quite dilapidated, seems it hasn’t been driven for a long time?”

Hearing this, Chen Wen smacked his lips, his newly straightened waist sank back onto the ground.

An abandoned car.

In Qiangtang, abandoned cars aren’t very common, but also not rare.

According to statistics from the Qiangtang Nature Reserve side, numerous people undertake self-driving tours through Qiangtang annually.

And about ninety percent of these people are impulsive travelers.

Their expertise isn’t strong.

Therefore, upon entering Qiangtang by car, over half would end up having car troubles internally within the Qiangtang Nature Reserve due to various unforeseen events.

Some only experience mild damage, spending some money can get the car out.

But for severe damages, even if spending money can’t fix the car or requires a large expense, travelers would eventually choose to abandon the car, leaving their vehicles in Qiangtang.

Chen Wen was deeply impressed by this phenomenon described by the reserve.

So upon realizing it’s an abandoned vehicle, Chen Wen relaxed, merely instructing Xiong Ma to lead the herd in that direction to check things out.

If it’s been abandoned recently, there might be valuable items inside.

Maybe they’ll find something useful.
